Buttock Fat Injections - What Do I Need to Know?
Make sure your surgeon has enough experience to make you comfortable with proceeding. Check web sites for before and after photos to get a good idea of what kind of results are possible. When seeing the surgeon make sure you feel like he understands your concerns and feels you are a good candidate. Get more than one consultation. In many patients, sculpting of the lower back or the outer thighs can further accentuate the buttock contour and improve the final results. Ask if these are good...

Brazilian Butt Lift
Optimal success depends on:
(1) THe amount of fat harvested through liposuction. (2) The liposculpting of the lower back (3) The amount of fat transferred. (4) The method of fat harvest, processing and final transfer. The latter is obviously dependent on your chosen plastic surgeon. Thus choose one who has does this procedure routinely and has many before and after photos.

Fat transfer to the buttocks : Brazilian Butt Lift
I think a careful analysis of buttock shape and pelvic structure is important to obtaining a good result. There is some excellent literature on this topic that has been recently published by Dr. Mendieta in Miami. Secondly, a efficient and atraumatic fat harvesting technique is important. Cytori is working on a couple of devices to expedite this process- most of us doing large volume fat grafting have developed our own systems and are always looking at ways to refine our technique....

Most important thing is to have adequate fat reserve for good volume enhancement. Some amount of fat gets absorbed in the initial period of time so I inform patients that they may need more then one sitting to get adequate projection.

Buttocks Fat Injections are Safe and Effective
Fat Injections when placed artistically with expert technique are what I believe to be the best option for soft tissue enhancement of the buttocks. You should consult with your Board Certified Plastic Surgeon regarding exactly what you are looking for, and bring photographs of the type of enhancement you desire. Generally large volumes need to be placed for adequate enhancement, in my experience ranging from 250cc-500cc in each buttock. Fat is placed strategically...

Brazilian butt lift is fat injections.
Hi!
In my opinion, well performed fat injections deep in the buttocks is the best and safest way to get a bigger butt. Stay away from implants.

There are several things you must understand for achieving buttock enhancement.
Liposuction of the flanks, illac crest, and posterior thighs enhance the buttocks and the body shape. Adding volume the to the buttock will take the enhancement to the next levet. There are several ways to enhance buttocks:
1. fat transfer
2. butt implants
3: dermis fat graft

Brazilian Butt Lift
This is probably the safest way to obtain a fuller rounder gluteal area. What you need to do is to see a board certified plastic surgeon and discuss if this is even an option for you. You need to have a good amount of liposuction performed, after which the fat is then injected into the gluteal area. Therefore you need to have a fair amount of fat to be injected.
Good luck.

Brazilian Butt lift: liposuction of waist with fat injection augmentation to buttock vs implants
SEE VIDEO BELOW FOR SAMPLE PATIENTS BY CLICKING "MORE":Thank you for your inquiry.
We can perform lipoinjection (fat injection) to the buttock for augmentation. It is best to perform this procedure under general anesthesia due to the extensive nature of the injections and the need to inject deep into the buttocks muscle.

There currently is no better or safer way than fat transfer for buttocks
For the moment, there is NO safer or better way to obtain a fuller, rounder and shapelier buttock than by the use of fat transfer (Brazilian Butt Lift). Implants are a distant second on the list and are reserved for very thin people with no fat to harvest - they have a long list of potential complications some of which are life long.
As regards OTHER fillers (Hydrogel, "collagen", silicone etc) -- NONE are FDA approved and each is associated with numerous horror stories....
